The Obama of Love

What struck the greatest chord at Obama's inauguration was the recital of the key Jewish prayer - the Shema in English

and the unashamed use of biblical language and cadence in general.

Plus my daughter rang to say it was worth being there despite the great cold.

And the realisation that Obama spelled backwards means 'I will love' in Latin.

Augurs well for the future.
